Does anyone know if this would fit a standard 3.5" internal hard drive (like a WD Blue)? I want to keep them protected when not in use.

Dont have mine here to measure it, but I am fairly certain the answer is yes

The WD 3.5 is a internal disk for a desktop. It would not fit in this case. I have two of these and I use them for the External WD 2.5disks. If you are seeking to keep your 3.5s protected, I could suggest the hard drive protector. If you were to type the "hard drive protector" in the amazon search bar a few options show up. Follow the Ratings and then price.

Hello ADave, the one that I got was def. for a 3.5" drive. The drive that I installed into it came from a home "tower" style computer, Dell if I remember correctly. Have you tried to install a drive into it yet? The case for mine was actually quite a bit bigger than and drive, prob for heat dissipation, but def for a 3.5" drive. Mine works flawlessly and allowed me to recover the info I had in the computer that died. I now use it for a back up storage.

Dan...I'm afraid I don't know. I've only put the 1TB WD MyPassport in it. If the Seagate you're interested in has the same or smaller dimensions, then you'll be just fine. There isn't a lot of extra room in the case for a much larger drive.

Hi Lucie, I 'm not sure. I posted the info about the particular WD drive I had because you never know what actually fits in these things. Hope someone with the Seagate can let you know. Also, look up the measurements to the WD drive I posted that fits and see if is the same size as your Seagate.

I gave you the dimensions of my 2TB portable HDD, which fits perfectly. Should fit yours as well.

I just measured my SSD and it measures 2.75 inches I don't know of any hard drives that measure three inches, only 2.75 and 5.25 drives. make sure that you are measuring the drive bare and not with the drive enclosure around it, make sure that you measure its width and not the length. I hope this helps, but your drive will not fit if it measures out to 3.00 inches in width.

It is :) I've that hard drive too. The only thing is that you will have to take the internal rubber protectors off if you want the drive to fit well.

I have an internal hard drive from my MacBook (late 2008) and it fits perfectly........really this is made for 2.5 drives,so really any of that size will fit

Has anyone actually successfully converted one of the 5.25 bays to 3.5 for a hard drive? I have 9 hard drives and want to see if this would actually fit them all. Thanks

Will only fit 3.5" drives. You have to get your own adapters if you want to fit 2.5" drives.

Thank you for asking and all the responses, that had me confused too. It looked like a small drive but the dimensions were off. I'm also looking at getting the hard case recommended but that dimensions listed would not have fit. I'm grateful to have found my question already answered.

It should be - I would be very surprised it wasn't! This is a standard enclosure for 3.5" SATA disk drives, and the WD drive you are asking about is a standard 3.5" SATA disk drive. Any modern 3.5" SATA drive should be fine with this enclosure.

An internal SATA 3.5" or 2.5" (2.5" needs a bracket to hold the HDD) would be compatible with this system, Western Digital and Seagate are both ok with this system, thank you.

The Sabrent 3.5" enclosures I have (2) fitted normal 3.5" HDs without a problem. Most likely ADave was shipped the wrong product(wrong model?)...

The Seagate Backup Plus should fit this case. I just measured mine and the inside dimensions of the case are 5 inches long and 3.25 inches wide. The online specs for the Seagate drive say that it is 4.9 inches by 3.2 inches. It ought to fit just fine but there won't be much (any) space left over. The thickness won't be a problem.Update: I need to revise what I said. I realized that the rounded corners make the useable space smaller and the actual dimensions of a drive can't exceed 3 inches by 5 inches. There's a good chance the Seagate drive will be just a tad too wide for this case. The Seagate Backup Plus should fit this case.

The format of this case is exactly the same as a 3.5 inch hard drive. So the bottom line is... if a 3.5 inch drive will fit, then this adapter case will fit.
